With a decade of experience, we provide over 300 global customers with software, bespoke AI consultancy, and Fellows from our award winning Fellowship programme.
Our expert team brings together leaders from across government, academia and global tech giants to solve the biggest challenges in applied AI.
Should you join us, you’ll have the chance to work with, and learn from, some of the brilliant minds who are bringing Frontier AI to the frontlines of the world.
About the role:
Faculty Applied AI is the professional services arm of Faculty. As a member of the Applied AI platform team you will be responsible for building and maintaining the data science, MLOps, and deployment tooling that enables our team of over 100 Data Scientists and Engineers to deploy full-stack machine learning products for our customers.
What you’ll be doing:
You’ll be working within a small team, in collaboration with our customer-facing technologists. The platform you own will be a significant lever on the quality of our deployed software. Taking ownership for our existing tooling, you’ll contribute to the technology our teams need to deliver our world-leading machine learning solutions; whether that’s new features for our notebook development environment, improvements to our model monitoring tooling or how we deploy our systems into a variety of client environments
What we’re looking for:
An software engineer who loves building tools to enable others, understanding their impact, and improving them
Experience of the machine learning product lifecycle and how data scientists go from exploration to deployed models
Modern systems programming in at least one programming language e.g Python, Go and Scala
Infrastructure-as-code and DevSecOps in one or more major cloud environments.
Experience working as part of a small, fast-moving team
Distributed, containerised microservices architectures: docker, kubernetes
Specifics that will help:
Kubernetes cluster management using kubectl or kops
IaaC: CloudFormation, Terraform
DevSecOps: GitLab CI/CD, Helm
MLOps using MLFlow, Jupyter notebooks.
Programming in Scala and Python: Some of our existing tooling is in Scala, and python is the language of our data science workflows, but we’re open to using the right technologies for the job
Our systems run in AWS, but we’re looking at how to integrate with other cloud providers so experience in more than one will help.
Experience in a platform/internal enablement team
